AK350Z Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Turned out "loads of pics" might not be as many as i thought sorry! Anyway, found these from the show in 2005: Star of the show, and the only time i've seen one in the flesh. Strangely i had seen it a couple of days previously in Weston-super-mare The sound as it idled past in town was My personal star of the show was this F1 inspired homebuild (not a kit!) fitted with the Alfa 1.7 16v boxer from the 33. Had taken 10 years to get to this point. Amazing! Dick Lovett had sent a 430 along. I belive this was just after launch, so another car i had only seen in magazines. The lurrvely Merci: 308 and a busy Corn Street. Oh, and my other favourite car ever, Ill Monstro! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanS Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 that looks brilliant. At first the thought of making a home made F1 car sounded daft - but seeing that as a road legal motor, big respect. Can you imagine nipping down to the shops in it? Not sure a 1.7 engine from a 33 would give it the Go to match the Show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a good craic with the fella that built it, he said it was under the half ton so that would give it a decent 250+bhp/ton with a breathed on engine.
